During pregnancy, the body needs more nutrients like folic acid, iron, and choline to support the baby's development. Homemade smoothies are a convenient and delicious way for expectant mothers to boost their intake of these vitamins and minerals, especially during morning sickness or when appetite is low.

While raw potatoes can be risky, properly cooked potatoes are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates, which provide energy during pregnancy. However, the method of preparation, particularly with wedges, can impact their nutritional value and safety for both mother and baby.

As a developing baby grows to the size of an acorn squash at 29 weeks of pregnancy, its nutritional needs increase significantly. This marks the beginning of the third trimester, a crucial period where a mother's diet directly fuels rapid weight gain and organ maturation. Understanding what to eat at 29 weeks of pregnancy can help you manage common symptoms and provide the essential building blocks for a healthy baby.
